  Mitchell has been talked up as the next GI. Seen as the roosters long term fullback.

  Latrell Mitchell is better.

  Congrats Twal and Fuimaono, two of the NYC's most consistent players and will always put up big numbers in a match no matter the circumstances. Hopefully they can continue the winning tradition of the NSW Under 20's who haven't lost a game since its inception.

  Bevan is 19 and Mitchell is 18. Age has nothing to do with it. Mitchell has had more time to develop as he was a part of the Centurions Harold Matthews side and was a part of the Roosters' SG Ball side last year whereas Bevan only had a handful of district rep games last year due to injury and then only this season in the NYC.

  Mitchell was also a part of the Australian Schoolboys team last year where he scored something like 10 tries in 6 games. So he's definitely the best young fullback in that group.

  Tepai ruled out through injury? Surely he would make this squad after man of match for junior kangaroos a couple I months back.

    They introduced a selection threshold this year to avoid the embarrassment of having a multitude of star youngsters pull out due to NRL commitments again (Brooks, Johnston last year). If a player has 7 or more NRL caps they are deemed ineligible for the 20s Origin fixture. Tep is well beyond that figure so he is exempt from selection.

  Ah ha. Thanks for that. Didn't realise.
